Yuanshi Tianzun was very angry, but the reality was very sad.
Taoist Ran Deng has not returned for a long time. There is only an Antarctic immortal beside him, and his heart is very desolate.
He wants to take revenge, but he may not be able to defeat the enemy he finds, and he doesn't even know who the enemy he can't find is.
What's even more unlucky is that he was affected by his previous battle with Master Tongtian and had to retreat for training.
At this moment, Yuanshi Tianzun was so angry that he wanted to destroy the entire world directly.
In the end, the coldness brought about by thousands of years of practice made him calm down, and he asked the Antarctic Immortal to close the mountain and retreat, and he returned to the dojo to retreat.
Revenge can wait, enemies are immortal anyway.
Now the first thing is to get yourself back into shape. Strength and cultivation are the foundation for anything you do.
Many other saints are similar. They no longer pay attention to the matter of conferring gods and measuring calamities. They return to their respective dojos and start to retreat, waiting for the important moment to arrive.
The result of the sudden suspension of the high-end game was that the human war, which had been ignored before, suddenly started to heat up.
Without the intrusion of the monks, the war between Xiqi and Dashang was rekindled.
Wen Zhong heard that the Grand Master was very proud and believed that without the help of the monks, Xiqi was no match for Dashang. It would take at most three months to completely eliminate Xiqi.
This confidence does not come out of thin air, but comes from sufficient confidence.
First of all, the strengths of the two sides are not unequal.
If Dashang's national power is ten, then Xiqi's national power is at most two or three.
Although there is support from slave owners from all over the country, it is only half the strength of Dashang.
Secondly, in terms of logistics and military resources, since the reform at Dashang, productivity has increased rapidly.
Advanced technology, efficient organizational capabilities, and the enthusiasm for production and life that emerged from freed slaves and civilians whose tax burdens were relieved led to a rapid increase in the number of various products of Dashang.
In terms of supplies, Dashang outnumbered Xiqi by at least ten to one.
Having nothing, not even your life, is incomparable to the efficiency of working and producing under the supervision of sharp knives and whips, and the efficiency of producing what you produce is your own.
The former may even secretly sabotage and even lead to starvation.
As for the latter, he was willing to work without rest for three days and three nights.
Furthermore, most of Xiqi's troops were slaves, supplemented by regular sergeants who controlled and monitored the slaves.
On Dashang's side, the majority are freed slaves. At the same time, Li Yunze has long promulgated a new military merit system, and those who achieve military merit on the battlefield will receive corresponding rewards!
Xiqi's side worked for nothing, and they didn't even get a pension when they died. They even just dug a hole and buried them, not even a grave.
But here in Dashang, everything is given. Even if someone dies in battle, his family can receive compensation and even his ashes can be sent home.
The fighting will of the armies on both sides really makes the difference from heaven to earth.
It is precisely because of this that Wen Zhong had absolute confidence and successfully captured Xiqi without the participation of monks.
However, just when he was arranging his troops and preparing to attack with a large army, Fei Lian, the senior official, came over from Chaoge City as an envoy.
"Fei Lian has met the Grand Master."
Wen Zhong's status in Dashang was extremely high. Even though Fei Lian had reached the high position of Zhongdafu, he still had to be respectful and polite when facing Wen Zhong.
"Um."
Wen Zhong was not arrogant at all. After returning the gift, he simply asked, "Why are you here, Doctor Zhong? My military affairs are urgent. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
He was really busy, mobilizing the army to transport military supplies and assigning tasks, and he had no time to chat with Fei Lian.
"yes."
Feilian did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly took out the letter and said, "This is the letter from the king to the grand master."
Wen Zhong took the letter, opened it and browsed it. After a moment, he suddenly stood up with his eyes wide open and yelled "This is impossible!"
The letter was indeed written by Li Yunze, but the content was to ask Wen Zhong to postpone sending troops and not to attack Xiqi now.
Wen Zhong naturally did not believe or accept this kind of thing.
He immediately yelled at Fei Lian and asked, "Is there a traitor in the court who is deceiving the king?"
He thought about it, how could the king, who had always behaved like a wise ruler, issue such an unreasonable order.
Xiqi is about to be eliminated. Should we stop fighting at this time?
The king would not do this, there must be some treacherous officials deceiving the king.
Fei Lian was also taken aback and waved his hand quickly, "Master Haojiao knows that all court officials are loyal ministers."
Wen Zhong was stunned for a moment. Thinking about it carefully, it was true.
Although he was on the front line, he still knew what was going on in the court.
At this time, Bigan Shangrong was the leader of the court, and most of the other ministers were recommended by them. They were all fair and capable, and could never be treacherous ministers.
But Wen Zhong couldn't understand the order in this letter.
Should we stop the war when victory is certain?
Wen Zhong stared at Feilian and asked, "Is this the king's handwriting?"
Fei Lian immediately understood what it meant, and immediately called Chongtianqulai, "Grand Master Mingjian, how can I have the guts to forge the king's handwriting? You only need to send someone to ask about this kind of thing. I'm not crazy."
!The king wrote this in front of me."
Wen Zhong, who was puzzled, finally invited Huang Feihu and entrusted him with all the affairs of the general. Then he rode the black jade unicorn and ran back to Chaoge City with sparks and lightning all the way.
When he returned to the city, he didn't even go home, but ran straight to the palace.
Along the way, everyone had different expressions when they saw Master Wen returning angrily, and various gossips spread wildly.
Wen Zhong naturally didn't say much. He just rode the black jade unicorn to the front of the Star-Zhailing Tower.
Li Yunze was naturally aware of such a big movement.
He calmly ordered people to invite Wen Zhong into the Zhaixing Tower.
Under the propaganda of Xiqi's spies, Zhaixing Tower has long been said to be a place with wine pools, meat forests, and countless beauties.
Although everyone who has been here knows that this is nonsense, there is nothing you can do about it. People who eat melons like to hear this kind of story.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The more you refute the rumors and explain it, the more people will believe it to be true.
So Li Yunze has been persuading Bigan and the others, "Don't explain, it's useless."
This is why Xibo Hou Jichang, who has more than 100 sons, is considered to be of high moral character.
However, Di Xin, who apparently only had two sons, was scolded for being a dishonest person.
The reason is very simple. The history books were written by Ji Chang's descendants. Of course they glorified their ancestors and viciously cursed their enemies.
It was clear that Emperor Xin wanted to abolish the burial system and free the slaves, but it was passed down to later generations. During the Battle of Muye, the freed slaves turned against the enemy and took the initiative to help the slave owners headed by Ji Fa.
I turned over Di Xin who helped me.
Anyone in their right mind knows that this is nonsense.
But that’s what people say, and as they say it, it becomes true.
The real Star-Zhaing Building, as Wen Zhong saw it at this time, was just an ordinary wooden attic.
The most important venue is the dojo where Li Yunze meditates and practices.
Not to mention wine ponds and meat forests, there isn't even a bowl of rice porridge here.
As for the beauty... Even if Li Yunze practiced the set of exercises given to him by Emperor Xuanyuan Huang, he would not be here.
"Your Majesty."
After meeting and saluting, Wen Zhong stopped talking nonsense and directly asked, "Is it true that the king ordered his ministers to postpone the attack on Xiqi?"
Li Yunze nodded, "It's true."
Arriving on the road, Wen Zhong was already mentally prepared and was not too excited. He just asked in a deep voice, "Why?"
"Because I need this war to continue."
Li Yunze's response made Wen Zhong puzzled, "Why is this?"
Isn’t the purpose of fighting a war to pursue victory? I really don’t understand why I don’t fight when I have a chance to win.
The real reason is, of course, that once Xiqi is defeated, this time the Tribulation of the Gods will be over.
Once the calamity is over, the chaos of the heavenly secrets will disappear. Those powerful saints can deduce the heavenly secrets.
The so-called deducing the secrets of heaven is actually peering into the future.
Although there are infinite possibilities in the future, Li Yunze's true identity will inevitably be exposed to the eyes of all the saints.
This is something Li Yunze cannot tolerate under any circumstances.
After killing Taoist Zhunti and many monks with different strengths and weaknesses, his current strength can defeat any saint in a one-on-one situation. Only Patriarch Hongjun is unpredictable and unpredictable.
But a sure victory does not mean that it can be won in one go. It still requires a battle.
As for the battle between saints, the energy fluctuates greatly, and even if the chaos clock is used to block time and space, it will not be able to stop it for long.
Once other saints sense it and rush over, Li Yunze will end up being besieged.
Therefore, the Conferred God Calamity Tribulation cannot end now, at least until Li Yunze is powerful enough to be able to fight without fear even if all the saints are on the opposite side.
However, if this reason cannot be told to Wen Zhong, then he can only use other reasons to convince him.
"Master."
First, he asked Wen Zhong to take a seat, and then Li Yunze explained, "What does the grand master think of the innovations I promote?"
Wen Zhong was slightly startled for a moment, then nodded and said "Yes."
The merchants' sacrifices were very cruel, and the lives of the slaves were also extremely miserable, because they were not treated as human beings at all.
Many people did not want to see this, but the slave owners were too powerful to object.
Now that the king has come forward, many people agree.
Wen Zhong is one of them.
"But this innovation has touched the interests of too many slave owners, and it is tantamount to robbing profits from their hands."
Li Yunze stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction to the west. "Xiqi's rebellion is essentially the rebellion of the slave owners who opposed the reform."
Wen Zhong nodded again, saying what he said was not wrong, it was the fact.
"But the Great Shang, Xiqi is not the only one with slave owners."
"Which of the four major princes and eight hundred small princes is not a slave owner?!"
"So what if we defeat Xiqi? The other princes will continue to rebel in the future, one after another."
"Instead of having to fight against rebellions that will be so troublesome in the future, it's better to give them a chance to jump out on their own, gather them all together, and then catch them all in one fell swoop!"
Wen Zhong already understood everything, and stood up directly and asked, "Your Majesty, how can we make them jump out?"
"Simple."
Li Yunze’s smile never diminished, “Let Xiqi win until they attack Chaoge!” If you like Zhutian Saves the Ming Dynasty, please collect it: (www.sodu777.net) Zhutian starts from Saving the Ming Dynasty to search and read novels.
